Morning had arrived, springing forth a new day in the smashers lives. They had all seen how Daisy laid the smack down on them yesterday; however, they were making sure not to be afraid to take her on. In Mario's room, the plumber rolled over in his sleep as he felt someone next to him. Mario then smiled cheekily, but did not open his eyes. He then leaned forward and kissed the figure on the cheek very tenderly before retreating back and sighing.
"And how's-a my Peachy-poo?", Mario asked.
"Oh, I bet-a she's very fine!", the figure said sarcastically.
"Hmm!?", Mario said as his eyes shot open, only to find his brother Luigi sleeping next to him on the bed. Mario then jumped out of pure shock before hitting his head on the ceiling and falling onto the floor, falling unconscious.
"MARIO!", Luigi said as he jumped out of bed and shaked his brother, Mario's head rolling back and forth.
"MARIO, WAKE UP!", Luigi shouted as he slapped his brother across the face. Mario then shot his head up before blinking a few times as his vision then became clearer as he saw his brother.
"Luigi!", Mario said.
"Yes! It is me.", Luigi said as he helped his brother stand on his own two feet as Mario gave out a sad sigh.
"I'm-a sorry bro, but I thought you were-a Peach.", Mario said in a sorrowful tone.
"Still haven't-a patched things up, huh?", Luigi asked as he took his sleep shirt off before spraying deodorant on his body.
"No, but I-a thought that yesterday's battle would help-a bring us back together.", Mario admitted as he took off his sleep clothes before putting on his overalls.
"Well, not-a everything works out as we plan.", Luigi responded as he grabbed his cap and put it on the his head.
"Unfortunately, that is-a so true. Hopefully everything works out for-a the better...", Mario sighed. Luigi then placed his hand on the elder brother's shoulder before giving Mario a warm smile as Mario offered a warm smile back.
"Don't-a lose hope. I mean, you are-a married, let time take its course.", Luigi encouraged as the two finished getting ready before exiting their room.
"I just-a hope that it doesn't take too-a long...", Mario said dreadfully as the two bros walked down the hallway to prepare breakfast for the morning. But as the two went down, they heard a loud snoring sound coming from the room to the right of them and saw that it was Master and Crazy Hands' bedroom. The two then looked at each other before tip-toeing in front of the door.
"Are you-a sure that isn't Crazy Hand? You know how-a much he loves alcohol.", Luigi suggested, but Mario shook his head.
"No, something is-a up with Master Hand. I want to-a put my hypothesis to the test.", Mario said as he cracked the door open a little.
"Mario! Don't!", Luigi whispered scoldingly, but Mario wasn't to be stopped now. Mario then swung the door completely open, revealing the entire room to the bros.
"Huh, what-a do you know? Master and Crazy Hands' bedroom is just-a like our bedrooms.", Luigi said as he inspected the room.
"And there's my proof!", Mario said as he pointed a finger at a large figure, all curled up on the bed in front of them. As the bros got closer, they then recognized the hand to be Master Hand, dead asleep as he tossed and turned in his sleep.
"So, now-a we know he's up to something; the question is-a...what?", Mario asked as he and Luigi then put their hands underneath their chins and began to theorize what was going on. Unfortunately for them, their mystery solving was cancelled abruptly as Master Hand sat up and yawned as he awoke.
"Oh...tommorow already? Well, I better get things mov...", he started before noticing Mario and Luigi by his bed side. The two then noticed Master Hand's awakening and smiled sheepishly before waving their hands at him.
"EEEKKKK!", Master Hand yelled as he pulled the bed sheets up from his bed and covered himself.
"MARIO! LUIGI! GET OUT! GO MAKE BREAKFAST! DON'T YOU KNOW HOW DISTURBING IT IS TO WALK IN ON SOMEONE WHO IS NAKED!?", Master Hand yelled at them.
"...you don't-a wear anything Master Hand.", Mario replied.
"I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU THINK, JUST GET OUT BEFORE I FRY YOU BOTH!", Master Hand said as the two brothers then jumped around and immediately ran for the door before slamming it shut as Master Hand then put the covers down and breathed out a breath of a relaxed sigh. Master Hand then spotted his phone before picking it up and dialing a number. The phone rang for a few seconds, but the recipient then answered from the other side.
"Yes?", Dr. Mario asked.
"Dr. Mario, get the project ready; today, we reveal it to the smashers.", Master Hand said as he clicked the phone off and got ready for the day.
"I'm-a telling you, Master Hand has been acting awful suspicious, don't-a you think?", Mario asked.
"Mario, you are-a asking Duck Hunt.", Luigi stated as he took a sip of his coffee. Mario then shook his head and saw that indeed he was talking to the dog. Duck Hunt then scratched behind his ears before standing up and circling a few times before plopping down next to the table and sleeping, the duck following suit. Mario then sighed as he slammed his head into the table.
"Ugh...look at-a me, talking to a dog about my own little theories. I couldn't-a be more pathetic.", Mario said.
"Well, you did-a forfit the match yesterday by jumping off.", Luigi stated as Mario facepalmed himself.
"Thanks for-a reminding me of that!", Mario said in a sarcastic tone.
"Hey, you made a statement, I just-a furthered upon it.", Luigi said with a smug smirk.
"And the worst part is-a that Peach was watching. How am I supposed to-a recover from that!? Her own husband, admitting defeat and-a jumping off instead of fighting! Some-a husband I am...", Mario said sadly.
"Oh, Mario, she doesn't-a think that! Why, you were in-a Daisy's mercy, not hers.", Luigi stated.
"Still, what if-a she doesn't see the man who she married anymore?", Mario asked.
"Nonsense! You haven't-a changed a bit!", Luigi said.
"You don't-a know that Luigi, you don't-a know...", Mario said as he looked sulkingly down. Suddenly, the intercom came over head as everyone could hear Master Hand cleared his throat.
"Oh Mario, you still need to help me with my paperwork.", Master Hand sang in a teasing tone. Mario's mustache then drooped down as he faceplanted himself in the table.
"Ohh...I hate to admit it, but I was-a very stupid when I asked for that job!", Mario said sorrowfully as Luigi laughed at his brother's dismay.
"I-a warned you.", Luigi said as Mario continued weeping in sadness. The elder brother then got up from his seat and went to Master Hand's office, to accomplish the task he had forgotten. Luigi couldn't help but chuckle to himself about how down Mario was about his job. He then noticed Daisy walking over towards him and immediately smiled as she sat down next to him.
"And how are we Luigi?", she asked sweetly.
"Oh, very-a good! I'm so proud of you for winning yesterday!", Luigi said as Daisy blushed and smiled at his comment.
"Oh, it was nothing.", she said.
"It was-a nothing? Why, you knocked out some of the best fighters in the series, even-a the heaviest, such with Wario!", Luigi said.
"ALL RIGHT! WHO-A CALLED ME FAT!?", a sudden burst came throughout the dining room as everyone then saw the source of the outcry, Wario, stand up on his seat as he surveyed the dining room, hoping to catch whoever mocked him. Just at that moment, Pit came towards his table with a large stack of eggs and bacon. Dark Pit then curled an evil grin as he nudged Wario in the shoulder.
"It was stupid over there!", Dark Pit said as he pointed towards his original counterpart. Wario then gritted his teeth as his face turned extremely red before he jumped onto the table, knocking everything off.
"HEY! MY BREAKFAST!", King Dedede whined.
"WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS WARIO!?", Mewtwo demanded.
"IT'S-A THAT FOOL OVER THERE, AND I'M-A GOING TO MAKE HIM PAY!", Wario yelled as he leaped forward at the angel. Pit then turned around, his face pale from what Wario threatened.
"WHAT!?", Pit screamed, but it was too late. Wario then landed on Pit as the angel cried out in pain due to the weight on him. Wario then grabbed Pit by the throat and began strangling him around as Pit called for help. Dark Pit then chuckled quietly, but not quiet enough for his table.
"I have a feeling that you're responsible for this.", Ganondorf said as he took a sip of his coffee.
"Who? Little old me?", Dark Pit asked as he faked an innocent voice and acted shocked.
"I can tell the sarcasm in your tone. You're a bad liar!", Bowser Jr. shouted as he pointed at the dark angel.
"And who asked you, little pest? There's a reason you're ranked the second lowestin our group!", Dark Pit snapped back. Bowser Jr. then began to turn red as he turned to his left and began shaking his father's arm.
"DADDY! BEAT HIM UP FOR ME!", Bowser Jr. pleaded.
"NO PROBLEM SON!", Bowser said as he stood up, but was immediately sat back down by Ganondorf.
"NO! YOU'LL ONLY MAKE IT WORSE FOR US! LET'S HAVE WARIO BE THE ONLY ONE IN TROUBLE!", Ganondorf scowled as Wario continued choking the good angel.
"SO, YOU-A THINK YOU CAN MOCK ME AND GET AWAY WITH IT!? BAH! YOU'RE-A DEAD MEAT!", Wario yelled in Pit's face, the garlic stench nearly making Pit puke in disgust.
"SOMEBODY SAVE ME!", Pit cried as he felt his breathing canals get tighter and tighter with each compression from Wario's grasp. Wario then completely jammed his thumbs into Pit's throat as the angel tried to call out, but could only cry out gasps for air.
"THIS-A IS THE END FOR YOU ANGEL BOY!", Wario snarled.
"WHAT'S GOING ON IN HERE!?", a voice suddenly yelled out as the kitchen doors suddenly swung open, revealing that Master Hand had made the outburst. Master Hand then focused his sight on the fat rival of Mario choking Pit to near death. Master Hand then clenched his...uh...fist...and shot forward and punched Wario right in the back. Wario was sent flying across the room and bounced off the wall before falling face-first onto the floor as Master Hand glared at him. Master Hand then looked down and saw Pit trying to stand back up, but was collapsing due to the previous incident. Master Hand then grabbed Pit's arm and pulled him up as Pit leaned against a chair.
"Are you alright Pit?", Master Hand asked.
"*WHEEZE!*", was all Pit could say, which made Master Hand shake his...uh...body in disapproval.
"I'm so sorry that happened to you, speaking of which...", Master Hand growled as he turned around to see Wario standing up and shaking his head before glaring at the creator andCreator and gritting his teeth in anger.
"WHAT'S-A THE MATTER WITH YOU!? I WAS-A ABOUT TO TEACH THAT ANGELIC PEST NOT TO CALL ME FAT!", Wario shouted while pointing a finger at Pit.
"Oh, so you thought it was okay to choke him?", Master Hand asked sarcastically.
"EVERYONE WAS-A ENJOYING IT! NO ONE CAME TO SAVE HIM!", Wario cried back.
"Wario, nobody helped because you would attack anyone trying to help Pit.", Ryu called out, making Wario's face turn deep red before he turned around and pointed at the warrior.
"SHUT UP! THAT WOULDN'T-A HAPPEN!", Wario yelled ferociously.
"As opposed to the evidence laid before us right now, we disagree.", Bayonetta replied, making Wario shake his fists in anger.
"GAH! IS-A EVERYONE OUT AGAINST ME TODAY!?", Wario yelled towards the ceiling.
"No, only the ones calling you out on your behavior!", Master Hand retorted. Wario then spun around and glared at him before motioning his hand toward the other villain smashers.
"THAT'S-A IT ISN'T IT!? YOU ALWAYS BLAME US FOR EVERYTHING THAT GOES WRONG FOR-A YOU! WELL, WE ARE-A SICK AND TIRED OF YOU PUSHING US AROUND!", Wario screeched.
"YEAH! YOU TELL HIM WARIO!", King Dedede cheered from the villian's table.
"Shut up Dedede! This doesn't involve you!", Master Hand shouted.
"OH, BUT I THINK IT DOES! HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU TORTURED US!? HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU ABUSED US!? WHY, YOU'VE LIED TO PEACH ABOUT HER SHAM WEDDING TO THAT PATHETIC PLUMBER AND REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT I AM WHO SHE IS TRULY MARRIED TO!", Bowser suddenly roared from his seat.
"BOWSER! HOW MANY TIMES MUST WE DRIVE IT THROUGH YOUR STUBBORN, THICK, STUPID SKULL THAT PEACH ISN'T AND WILL NEVER BE MARRIED TO YOU!? SHE IS MARRIED TO MARIO!", Master Hand yelled at the top of his lungs. Bowser's nostrils then flared up as smoke puffed out of them before he stood up and banged his fist onto the table.
"LIES! ALL A BUNCH OF LIES!", Bowser cried out.
"AND WHAT'S WITH YOU PROTECTING THE HEROES!? THEY CAN HANDLE THEMSELVES!", Mewtwo blurted out.
"WHY DO WE HAVE TO OBEY YOU!?", Bowser Jr. yelled while pointing a clawed finger at the hand.
"NOBODY NEEDS YOU!", King Dedede yelled. This was when Master Hand reached his breaking point.
"THAT'S IT! I HAVE HAD ENOUGH OF YOU VILLAINS! I HAVE DEALT AND PUT UP WITH YOUR UNGRATEFUL LOT EVER SINCE YOU FIRST GOT HERE! I WANT ALL OF YOU TO START CLEANING THE MANSION. DOING THE CHORES, AND BUYING THE GROCERIES AND SUPPLIES! DO YOU UNDERSTAND!?", Master Hand shouted so loud, it caused the mansion to shake. The smashers remained quiet, the villains especially. Soon, all of the hero smashes then got up and ran out of the dining room, leaving Master Hand with the villain smashers. The villain smashers then looked at each other, only to grin evilly as they got up and left the room.
"HAVE-A FUN DOING THE CHORES MASTER HAND!", Wario shouted as he exited the dining room.
"What did you say!?", Master Hand suddenly yelled.
"You heard him, we aren't doing any of those 'chores', let alone anything you say!", Mewtwo snapped back as he levitated out of the room. Master Hand then knelt down and grunted I frustration.
"URGGH! I CAN'T STAND YOU VILLAINS! THIS IS A BATTLE I CAN'T WIN!", Master Hand yelled.
"Too bad, so sad. Now shut up and get to cleaning!", Wolf commanded as he, Bowser, and Dark Pit left.
"HA HA! HAVE FUN!", King Dedede taunted childishly as he was the last one to leave the room, leaving Master Hand alone. However, once they were gone, Master Hand then began to chuckle to himself.
"HA HA! FOOLS! YOU TOOK THE BAIT! LITTLE DO YOU KNOW, I HAVE ALREADY WON THE BATTLE!", Master Hand thought to himself.
"Oh no, that's-a what happened when I left?", Mario asked. Luigi, who was accompanied by Link, Fox, and Captain Falcon, all nodded their heads yes as Mario facepalmed himself.
"Mama Mia, Master Hand is-a truly tormented by these villains. Why can't-a they stop focusing on-a themselves and actually help for the mansion's sake!?", Mario yelled in frustration before slamming his fists onto the table he was working at.
"Mario, do you really expect the villains to do something useful for a change?", Link asked rhetorically.
"Yeah! Think about what they've done or said in the past!", Captain Falcon chimed in.
"Ganondorf wants the Triforce, Wario wants to rob everyone in the mansion and the city, Mewtwo is racist towards humans and other 'low-life' beings to him, and Bowser wants to manipulate Peach's thinking to marry him instead. Do you really want that to happen Mario?", Fox asked. The red-cladded plumber's eyes widened a bit when he heard of his wife's name and sighed in despair before tilting his head down in shame.
"Please-a don't bring that up, we haven't-a recovered yet.", Mario requested.
"Mario, how long is it going to-a take you to set it straight with Peach?", Luigi asked.
"AS-A LONG AS IT NEEDS TO-A BE!", Mario snapped as he slammed his fist into the desk. The others remained silent, startled by Mario's outburst as the plumber began to breath deeply. Mario then slumped back into his seat and looked down in embarrassment.
"I'm-a sorry bro, I have been too-a stressed lately. Especially with this new job.", Mario said apologetically.
"It's-a okay, we're-a brothers!", Luigi said as he gave Mario a comforting smile, who smiled weakly back.
"Speaking of stress, we better check up on the villains to make sure they don't bring any more chaos for Master Hand.", Captain Falcon said as everyone then nodded their heads.
"Agreed! Go-a spy on them for a while, see what-a we can do to ensure that they will behave properly now.", Mario said.
"I don't know Mario, spying on them will make us look like the bad guys, don't you think?", Link asked as Mario then placed his hand underneath his chin and nodded in agreement.
"True Link, but we have-a no other choice. If we don't-a start doing something now, we'll-a fail when the time comes later.", Mario explained as Link looked hesitant for a second, but then nodded his head.
"Perhaps you're right Mario, I just don't want this whole situation to escalate into a terrible outcome.", Link answered.
"Yes, but we don't want an outcome where they win, do we?", Fox asked.
"True, we have-a to make sure that they can't do anything bad.", Luigi added on.
"We have to take risks Link, I know that I will do anything to make sure that the villains are stopped and my friends are safe. Think about what we said yesterday morning, we can't back down.", Captain Falcon said. Link then began to think on these words before lifting his head up and nodding it once.
"You're right. The only way to win a victory in the future is to act now.", Link said.
"Then what-a are we waiting for? Let's-a go!", Luigi said as he and Captain Falcon left the room, but Link and Fox stayed behind as Mario raised an eyebrow at them.
"Well? What-a is it you two?", Mario asked.
"Well, we know that you work hard to make sure everything runs smoothly...", Link started.
"And we would like to help pay you back.", Fox finished. Mario then raised his eyebrow again before leaning back in his seat while resting one foot on the other and placing his hands behind his head.
"Alright, what-a do you want?", Mario asked bluntly, obviously sensing that they wanted something.
"We want to help you with your paperwork!", Link blurted out as he and Fox beamly grinned. Mario's eyes then widened as he sat up and stared at them for a few moments. Suddenly, he bursted out into laughter as he fell onto the floor and began rolling around as tears were coming out of his eyes and his lungs felt like they were going to explode as Link and Fox raised an eyebrow in response.
"OH! HE HE! YOU TWO *HOO!* WANT TO DO PAPERWORK!? HA HA HA! I MUST-A STILL BE ASLEEP! NOBODY WOULD-A SAY SOMETHING SO STUPID LIKE THAT! *HOO!*", Mario continued laughing for a minute before opening an eye and seeing the two's serious stares before quitting his fits of laughter...which took a few more minutes. Mario then regained his composure before standing back up and sitting in his seat as he held his hands together and looked at the two with a serious look.
"Now, I-a know you want to help me, but this is-a very stressful job. I can't-a tell you how many restless nights I've-a had since taking this job up. I do get some sleep, but it is-a always short-lived. Do you really want-a that? Link, do-a you even know how to do paperwork? Fox, do-a you want a bunch of stress on you, especially if it could affect your-a relationship with Samus?", Mario asked. However, instead of thinking about it, the two immediately nodded their heads.
"Mario, we know that you care for us. But it's time that someone cared for you. We'll help you right away. In fact, right now.", Link said. All the plumber could do was but to sigh discouragedly as he shrugged his shoulders.
"Okay, but you-a need Master Hand's permission.", Mario said.
"Don't worry, we'll get a head-start right now!", Fox said as he grabbed a bunch of papers and began piling them. However, when Link grabbed but one paper, he stopped and scratched his head in confusion before turning to the others.
"Uh, guys, what does 'print' mean?", he asked as Mario and Fox facepalmed themselves.
"There's-a the villains' room!" Luigi said as he pointed towards the door from the corner he was hiding behind. Captain Falcon then peeped his head around the corner and narrowed his eyes down on it like it was another bounty of his.
"Hopefully they're in there, plotting their next scheme out loud.", the racer replied as he ducked behind the corner.
"Well, there will be three of us that can testify against them.", someone said as Captain Falcon smiled at him.
"I'm so glad you agreed to help us out Falco, we really need some help.", Captain Falcon said as the avain just shrugged in response.
"No need to thank me, we need to expose them before things get out of control. Besides, Fox doesn't want to do anything with me, unlike you.", Falco replied.
"Guys, let's-a sneak over now.", Luigi said as he and the other two began tip-toeing over towards the villains' door and quietly placed their ears on the door to hear if anyone was inside.
"I tell you what, I'm tired of that hand telling us what to do!", King Dedede shouted from the other side of the door. The others looked at each other and gave a thumbs up.
"Yep. They're in there.", Falco whispered.
"Not only that, but he makes us do chores! How dare he do that!", Bowser Jr. shouted from the other side.
"I sure hope that today we showed him that we are the true bosses of this place!", Wolf growled.
"Nonsense. The only thing it did do was target us further for his list of chores.", Ganondorf stated.
"WHAT!? I HATE CHORES!", Bowser Jr. screamed.
"Well, if you had thought about that before that stunt earlier, you wouldn't have to be so paranoid about doing them.", Ganondorf said bluntly.
"HEY! Don't you dare put yourself out of the picture here! You also left the room with us!", Bowser roared in response.
"And so what if I did? I have to make sure our group doesn't get into any trouble.", Ganondorf replied.
"YOU!? OUR LEADER!? BAH! EVERYONE KNOWS THAT I SHOULD BE IN CHARGE!", Mewtwo arrogantly huffed.
"SHUT UP MEWTWO! IT'S PRETTY OBVIOUS THAT I SHOULD TAKE COMMAND OF THE GROUP!", King Dedede shouted.
WHAM!
"OWW! WHY DID YOU PUNCH ME IN THE NOSE GANONDORF!? I'M NOW BLEEDING PROFUSELY AND FEELING SAD!", King Dedede wailed like a child.
"First of all, it's barely bleeding; second, you will never be leader, let alone the second worst in our group; that tiltle belongs to Bowser Jr.", Ganondorf said.
"HA HA! YEAH! YOU'RE THE WORST IN OUR GROUP! YOU WILL NEVER...wait...HEY! I WANT AN APOLOGY RIGHT NOW!", Bowser Jr. yelled.
"SHUT UP! ALL OF YOU! WHAT WE DO KNOW IS THAT WE NEED TO MAKE OURSELVES MORE EFFECTIVE AS A GROUP, NOT AS INDIVIDUALS!", Ganondorf said.
"Agreed. We can do a whole lot better if we are recognized as a complete group that is a force to be reckoned with rather than a couple of individuals with then lackeys behind.", Dark Pit said.
"Oh, I like this. Even better, I'll help us become more feared.", Wario said.
"What do you think he means by that?", Captain Falcon whispered as the other two shrugged.
"What is it Wario?", Bowser asked.
"Well, me and-a Mewtwo have a match against Ryu and Pikachu today. Now, fighting against Ryu is like a deer running head first into a monster truck, it's-a going to end up badly for the deer anyway. So, for-a this fight, I'm-a storing extra garlic to tip the battle in our favor.", Wario explained. The three heroes outside then widened their eyes as they looked at each other.
"Oh no! This is bad! We better tell Master Hand!", Falco said as he began to stand up, only to fall down as his leg was used to being in the squatted position.
"Huh? What was that? I thought I heard shuffling...", Wolf said as someone was heard getting up.
"Hurry!", Luigi whispered as the three then snuck behind a corner as Falco got back up quickly and joined them as the villain door opened and Wario then stepped outiside. Just when he was about to stick his head out, a young boy with a baseball cap ran by him and down the corner where the three heroes were hiding; but the boy paid no attention to them as he ran gleefully down the hall as other children passed by Wario.
"You won't get away without getting tagged Ness!", Toon Link yelled playfully as he and the other children smashers ran down the hall and pass the three heroes as Wario scowled at them.
"STUPID KIDS! DON'T-A BOTHER US!", Wario yelled before he slammed the door. Luigi, Captain Falcon, and Falco then stood up before tip-toeing down the hallway where the children smashers ran down, hoping not to catch the villain smashers' attention again.
"We better report this to-a Master Hand!", Luigi said as the three then ran down the hall, hoping to find the creator.
"AFTER HIM!", Toon Link yelled as he and the other children smashers chased after Ness down the hallway of the mansion. Ness then looked behind him as he saw the others right on his tail, giggling as they closed in on him. Ness then let out a childish laugh before turning the corner and running down another hall.
"THIS TIME WE HAVE HIM FOR SURE!", Popo shouted as the others then turned the corner and ran down the hallway. But they only made it halfway before stopping dead in their tracks. The hallway only went back to the back of the mansion, which was where they came from. On top of that, Ness was missing. The confusing part wasn't where Ness escaped, it was how he escaped. The others were just right behind him, no chance for him to get away or down the hallway in enough time to not be spotted.
"Huh? Where'd he go?", Nana asked. They then suddenly heard a silent snicker as they spotted a potted plant they hadn't seen before by the corner of the hallway. In the blink of an eye, Ness then dashed out from behind the plant and began running back down the hallway from whence they had come. The children smashers then turned around and went full speed ahead as they began the chase anew.
"DON'T LET HIM GET AWAY!", Lucas yelled as the children made good process as their little feet began carrying farther than before as they ran as hard as they could to catch up with the psychic boy. Ness then turned down the hallway that led towards the front of the mansion and ran as hard as he could, but was having difficulty so due to laughing so hard and using up all of his energy already. Ness then looked behind and saw the others five feet behind him. Ness then turned his head forward and tried pushing himself beyond his limits, but it was of no use. The others then caught up and began dog-piling on him, Lucas first, Toon Link second, Nana and Popo third and fourth, Villager fifth, and Young Link last.
"WE'VE GOT HIM!", Toon Link cheered triumphantly as the others couldn't stop laughing from all the fun that they were having. The children then stood up as they released Ness from the capture as the boy stood up and wheezed for breath as he couldn't stop laughing.
"Oh man...*hack!*...that was fun! *WHEEZE!*...what should we do now?", the PSI boy asked.
"I don't know, what do you think Young Link?", Toon Link asked.
"I dunno, too tired to think what to do next...YOU COPY!", Young Link shouted as he raised his fist at his cartoonish self. Toon Link was startled at first; thankfully, Popo had a brilliant idea in the nick of time to save the pirate.
"Hey, let's go to the living room and play some Mario Kart!", Popo said as everyone cheered on.
"YEAH! MARIO KART!", Villager screamed as he pumped his fists into the air.
"LET'S GO!", Lucas said as the children dashed madly towards the living room, hoping that none of the adults had taken the TV for a movie. The children then tunred the corner and ran towards the entry way of the mansion where the living room door was when suddenly Mario came walking out of the living room. The children smashers then stopped in their tracks as Mario began walking towards them. The children smashers were unsure what the plumber was doing in the living room, but thought that he was getting a drink. Still, they couldn't help but feel like he was... different. There was an unusual calm and happiness in his smile, and a bounce in his walk that completely contrasted with his new depressed and saddened behavior ever since taking up his new job. However, despite the changes, the children smashers did not feel threatened and instead greeted their fellow smasher.
"Hey Mr. Mario, what's up?", Ness asked as he waved his hand. Mario then lifted his hand and waved before pulling it down and giving a thumbs up and a wink.
"Hello! It's-a me, Mario!", Mario said as the children smashers then raised an eyebrow in confusion.
"Uh...we know Mr. Mario. We were asking how are you doing.", Toon Link answered.
"Hello! It's-a me, Mario!", Mario repeated, actions and words. The children smashers then looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders.
"Do you think that he is going off his rocker?", Popo asked.
"Dunno, but the doc might want to check up on him.", Villager stated.
"MASTER HAND! MASTER HAND! OH...WHERE ARE-A YOU!?", a shout was then heard from the hallway as the children smashers saw Luigi, Captain Falcon, and Falco running down towards them in the main entrance. The three then stopped as they began questioning the kids immediately.
"QUICK! HAVE-A YOU SEEN MASTER HAND!?", Luigi asked frantically.
"No we haven't seen him for a while.", Ness replied.
"OH NO! THIS IS-A BAD! WE'VE GOT TO-A..."
"Hello! It's-a me, Mario!", Mario repeated, doing the same actions and repeating the same words as before. The three adults then looked at the red-cladded plumber before looking at the kids.
"Uh...why did he say that?", Captain Falcon asked, only for the children to shrug in response.
"We don't know, he just started doing this.", Lucas explained.
"Who just started doing what?", a new voice asked as Samus then entered the room, carrying Pikachu in her hands as Kirby rode on top her shoulders.
"We were just having a snack before this little guy has a battle against Wario and Mewtwo with Ryu. I couldn't help but over hear you guys talking about someone.", Samus said as she looked at Mario.
"It's Mario Ms. Samus! He's been acting strange!", Nana answered, only for Samus to chuckle in response.
"Oh Nana, Mario can't be acting that weird. I mean, what's so..."
"Hello! It's-a me, Mario!", Mario yet again repeated as Samus then looked on at the plumber in shock.
"Oh...", she said as everyone else nodded their heads.
"Yeah, we don't know what's going through his head.", Villager said
"Maybe he had one too many shrooms.", Falco suggested as Luigi then physically tightened up before turning around to face the avian.
"FOR THE LAST-A TIME, THEY AREN'T-A DRUGS!", Luigi shouted.
"I don't know Luigi, I mean, they sound like drugs to me.", Captain Falcon stated.
"WHO DO I HEAR SAYING THAT-A OUR MUSHROOMS ARE DRUGS!?", a new voice shouted as everyone turned around and saw three figures coming up. The first two were Link and Fox, but the third caught everyone by surprise as everyone then jaw-dropped.
"NO WAY!", Ness shouted.
"BUT...HOW!?", Toon Link screeched in disbelief.
The third figure was none other than Mario himself!
The others were deadly silent as the three newcomers raised their eyebrows in anticipation of what was to be told to them.
"Well? We haven't-a got all day!", Mario said as he turned his head toward the right and saw the other Mario. The Mario that had just stepped in then had his eyes bug out in a cartoonish fashion as he saw the duplicate in front of him.
"WHAT THE...HOW THE...WHEN THE...", Mario continued yelling, unable to properly finish a question as he stared at the replicated intruder.
"Ma...Mario...there's...", Link stammered, completely blown away from the new Mario.
"Hello! It's-a me, Mario!", the Mario repeated again.
"Mario...how can there...", Captain Falcon started.
Btzzz!
"Huh!?", Ness suddenly said as he noticed a spark come out of the first Mario's kneecap. The Mario then began to waver around a little bit, more electric buzzes and sparks going off, each building upon the other.
"Hello! Mario! It's-a Mario, me Hello! Me, Mario Hel-it's Mario!", the first Mario started sputtering as the others watched in anticipation and wonder.
"What are you!?", Fox asked. Suddenly, a large bang went off as the first Mario then leaned over before his cap fell off and a eyeball fell right out of his socket and rolled on the ground towards the kids.
"AAAHHHHHH!", they all screamed in horror.
"Hello! It's-a me...Ma...rio...", the first Mario slurred before going completely silent and just remained standing there, hunched over in his position. The room remained quiet for a few seconds before Falco screamed like a mad-man.
"ALRIGHT! WHAT'S GOING ON HERE!?", he screamed at the top of his lungs.
"CONFOUND IT! WE WERE NEARLY THERE DOCTOR!", a new voice spoke up as everyone then looked into the living room, only to find Master Hand and Doctor Mario in there, the latter holding what appeared to be a remote control device.
"Yes, but a couple of-a spruces up and it should-a be ready.", Doctor Mario said as he stepped forward, only to grab a wrench from his coat's pocket, and began walking towards the other Mario. The others in the hallway then looked back at Master Hand, who was floating out of the room with an obvious disappointed look on his...uh...body.
"Master Hand, what-a is the meaning of this!?", Mario asked as he motioned towards the other Mario, who Doctor Mario was inspecting.
"Oh, you like it? This is my latest project!", Master Hand proclaimed.
"Uh...what is it?", Link asked. But before Master Hand could answer, a rather loud gag was heard from the children smashers.
"Uh...here's Mario's...eye.", Ness said as he threw up a little in his throat as he held the eyeball up by the stem. Master Hand then turned towards Doctor Mario and motioned him to the remote control.
"Sorry about that, but we needed it to be life-like.", Master Hand said.
"What do you mean 'life-like'?", Samus asked.
"This.", Doctor Mario said as he pressed a button on the remote control. Suddenly, the completely still Mario then began strangely buzz before what appeared to be a holographic disguise went off, revealing the body of a robot underneath. The eye that Ness held also changed from a real like eyeball to just a artificial blue dot and a wire connected. The children smashers then sighed in relief as Doctor Mario took the robotic eye and reattached it to the robot as the adult smashers then chattered about the robot.
"Oh...it was-a just a robot.", Luigi said as he regained his cool from the shock he witnessed.
"Well, that explains Mario's weird actions.", Captain Falcon said.
"But why do you need another robot? Don't you have some for assist trophies anyways?", Samus asked. Master Hand then nodded his...uh...body.
"Yes I do, but this is a special robots.", Master Hand said.
"How so?", Lucas asked.
"Do you remember all of the medical appointments I had you take?", Master Hand asked.
"Yeah. We had to-a get multiple shots. But what-a does that have to do with any of-a this?", Mario inquired the creator of the tournament.
"Well, you see, the robots are actually scanning your DNA!", Master Hand explained.
"What!?", Fox shouted.
"How so!?", Toon Link demanded.
"Well, when we drew your DNA from your blood from the shots, we scanned them into a computer to get every single detail down to the very...heh heh...excuse me for this unintentionally pun...bone.", Master Hand explained.
"Then we-a took that data from the computer and began working on-a these robots to mimic every single fighter within this-a tournament, down to the very last-a detail.", Doctor Mario joined in as he finished fixing up the robot.
"Precisely! We can match every single pore on Little Mac's face, every scale from Bowser's body, even the smallest hair on Bayonetta!", Master Hand exclaimed.
"But why? Why would-a you do this?", Mario asked.
"And especially in secret?", Link added on. Master Hand then floated towards the center of the group as he hung the front portion of his body down.
"Villains.", he said bluntly.
"What?", Popo asked. However, Mario seemed to get what the hand was saying.
"Oh...now I-a get it...", the plumber said.
What does he mean Mario?", Captain Falcon asked.
"What I mean is that I am going to get rid of them soon.", Master Hand said.
"What?", Luigi asked.
"I explained this secret plan to Mario on his wedding night, he was the only who knew by that time. I plan to get rid of the villains. I always have. But due to Nintendo forcing me to keep them here, I could never finish the job. But now, I finally have a way to accomplish my goal, and have it as real as possible.", Master Hand said. Suddenly, light bulbs went off in everyone's head as they started to get the idea.
"Oh...because the villains have been causing so much trouble, you found a way to replicate them to the very last detail where you can get rid of them, but not lose them entirely due to their DNA being used for the robots.", Ness said as he put the pieces together.
"Correct Ness! The robots have also been scanned with their movesets and attack patterns by hidden cameras we have used during the battles; in fact, everyone has been scanned!", Master Hand revealed.
"But why?", Fox asked.
"Well, in case one gets sick, injured, or has to do something else, the robot can take that person's place in battle. Thus, no one loses credibility and can find a way to get somewhat payed.", Master Hand explained.
"Somewhat?", Falco asked.
"Don't question me or I'll take seventy-five percent of your next paycheck!", Master Hand boomed as he pointed at the avian, who only gulped in fear and nodded his head in approval.
"But why didn't-a you tell me!? I thought-a you were going to keep it between us two! Why did-a you instead plan this with my clone!?", Mario said as he pointed at Doctor Mario.
"I'm sorry Mario, but there was no good time before today. I needed Doctor Mario more because he had all the medical knowledge needed for this project to be a success.", Master Hand explained.
"I'm-a sorry too. I wanted to-a tell you, but it would have-a jeopardize the entire plan.", Doctor Mario apologized as Mario gave out a pathetic sigh.
"No, I'm-a sorry. I should have-a trusted you, but at least we-a know now and can help.", Mario said.
"Master Hand, does the robot only mimic fighters?", Nana then asked.
"Actually, no. It can even replicate assist trophies! Watch!", Master Hand said as Doctor Mario smiled eagerly as he pressed a button on the remote control. The newly fixed robot then stood straight up suddenly and began to glow as a bright flash then surrounded it as the light died off, revealing the robot to have taken the form of Isaac. Ohhs and ahhs were heard throughout the room as everyone was in awe by the robot's authentic look of the Venus clan warrior.
"Hey, Isaac is-a back for another tournament!", Mario said gleefully.
"Aw man! I thought for sure he would make it in this time!", Ness said as he shook his head.
"We have taken the DNA of other people as so they can be represented as assist trophies!", Master Hand explained as Doctor Mario then pressed the button again as the bright flash then appeared again. Isaac was then replaced by a three foot tall red echidna with spiked on his gloves.
"Hey! Knuckles!", Luigi exclaimed as he recognized the figure.
"Wait, how do you make the robot match the size of the person it's mimicking?", Captain Falcon asked.
"When we worked on the robot, we built special gears and metal slits that can help suppress and compress the robot's size and shape to help it match identically to whoever it is mimicking. It can expand to help match King Dedede's fatness, and compress itself down to the size of Pichu for a perfect match. It even has special compartments for storing weapons such as sword fighters and the robot's hands can change it to blasters to replicate Samus and Megaman.", Master Hand explained. Doctor Mario then pressed the button again as Knuckles then began to flash. In his place was a blue vixen in revealing clothes while wielding a staff. Doctor Mario and Master Hand then jumped back in shock by who it was.
"OH NO!", Doctor Mario exclaimed as he began pressing the button rapidly to make the robot change figure.
"YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO SHOW THAT!", Master Hand yelled. The two of them were hoping that nobody recognized the figure as the robot changed form. But unfortunately for them, the damage was already done. Fox and Falco stood there wide-eyed as Fox's eyes began to tear up as Falco jaw-dropped.
"Who was that?", Young Link asked.
"Do you know Falco and Fox?", Captain Falcon asked.
"Uh...you better go on your way now...heh heh...we still have some work to do...just don't tell the villains...ta ta!", Master Hand said nervously as he went to go towards the robot.
"Wait! Master Hand! Falco, Luigi, and I have something important to tell you!", Captain Falcon said as he grabbed Falco, who was still in a state of shock as he and Luigi then motioned Master Hand into the living room to talk in private. Mostly everyone then dispersed as Doctor Mario was now controlling the robot, which took the shape of Waluigi, to walk into the living room as well. Samus then looked at Pikachu and Kirby before handing them over to Mario and Link.
"Can you hold them for a moment? I think I better talk to Fox.", Samus said.
"Don't worry, you are the person for-a this situation.", Mario said as he and Link carried the two into Master Hand's office. Samus then walked over towards Fox, who was still standing there, on the verge of crying before she tapped him on the shoulder which made him face her.
"Hey...do you want to talk about it?", Samus asked as Fox turned his head away quickly.
"Uh...I don't kn...Samus...would you be upset if I told you that you weren't the first girlfriend I had?", Fox asked nervously.
"Well, you weren't the first boyfriend I had, but what's wrong with her?", Samus asked softly. Fox then bit his lip as he rubbed his left arm with his right.
"Well...her name is Krystal...we...we used to date...but...but I made too many mistakes...including not letting her into battle...I was only trying to protect her...but she left me...and joined Wolf's team...Samus...would...would you think it would be selfish if I said you couldn't go into battle.", Fox choked as a single tear fell down his cheek.
"Well, I would be upset, but I would understand. Besides, my armor would be too much for anyone, you of all people should know.", Samus said as she slightly punched him in the shoulder as he gave a weak chuckle.
"Yeah, I remember punching your helmet for the first time, my fist felt like it was going to break.", Fox said as Samus laughed slightly at the story. Fox then smiled weakly as he pulled Samus into a hug before letting out another tear.
"Thank you for understanding.", he said.
"Hey, don't worry, it's what we do.", she said as she kissed him on the cheek. He then smiled back as Master Hand's office door then opened as Mario and Link then stepped out.
"So...all good?", Link asked as Fox and Samus chuckled in response.
"Yeah, we're good.", Fox answered.
"THEY'RE WHAT!?", a sudden shout came from the living room before an angry Master Hand floated out as Luigi, Captain Falcon, and Falco followed tail.
"OH, THEY'RE SO GOING TO PAY FOR THIS! THEY KNOW THAT CHEATING IS ILLEGAL IN THE TOURNAMENT!", Master Hand shouted.
"Good heavens! What's-a going on!?", Mario asked.
"We'll tell you later! Master Hand, we should watch from your booth so we can catch them in the act!", Captain Falcon suggested.
"OH YES! YOU THREE WILL BE WITH ME WHEN THE MATCH STARTS IN A FEW MINUTES! Which reminds me, Pikachu, go to the teleporting room and meet up with Ryu. Your match will begin soon.", Master Hand ordered.
"Pika!", Pikachu said as he leapt out of Mario's arms and dashed towards the teleporting room.
"What about us?", Link asked.
"I need you four to watch the TV monitors! We'll need to know when we'll catch those..."
"Hey Master Hand! Look, I found a ladybug!", Lucas said as he brought the invertebrate to the hand.
"ACK! LUCAS, PUT IT DOWN NOW! DON'T YOU KNOW IT MIGHT CONTAIN SOMETHING DEADLY!?", Master Hand shouted. However, Lucas and everyone else then began to chuckle before bursting into laughter.
"WHAT!? MASTER HAND IS AFRAID OF BUGS!?", Ness laughed as Master Hand stewed in anger.
"HA HA! MAYBE WE SHOULD-A REPORT THAT TO THE MEDIA!", Mario laughed as Link, Kirby, and the other joined in.
"SILENCE! PUT THAT DOWN! YOU DON'T KNOW HOW DANGEROUS THAT IS! NOW COME ON! THERE'S A MATCH WE HAVE TO WATCH!", Master Hand yelled as he and everyone then left the room as Lucas put the ladybug down. Unfortunately for them, they didn't realize how correct Master Hand was...
"On a TV screen, many miles away from the mansion and on the outskirts of the city, the entire mansion was being watched by a figure who was now shaking his head in disappointment. It was Giygas, and unfortunately, he saw what was not to be seen.
"Very clever Master Hand, I must admit again, very clever. But not clever enough, for now your plan is now in danger of complete failure.", Giygas said as he returned back to his work.
"Are you ready for this Pikachu? We're facing two dangerous opponents that are even more so dangerous together.", the mouse was asked by the Wandering Warrior, Ryu, who was busy stretching out for preparation for battle.
"Pika pi!", Pikachu replied with a heroic face as Ryu nodded his head before practicing some martial arts techniques.
"Okay, but be careful. Who knows what they have planned with Mewtwo's brain and Wario's brawn.", Ryu advised as he practiced his Joudan Sokutogeri. Pikachu then charged his cheeks up as he blasted a punching bag with a swarming electric attack, meanwhile Ryu practiced more of his punches and kicks before finishing with a Shoryuken.
"Attention fighters, the battle is to begin now.", Master Hand said over the intercom.
"Come on Pikachu, it's time.", Ryu said as he and Pikachu stood on the teleporter and were teleported to the battlefield. On the battlefield, the two could see that they were in a peculiar castle that was surrounded by stands of mushroom shaped people, they were sent to Peach's Castle.
"Well, we've come to Wario's home turf.", Ryu said as he studied the crowd. Pikachu then looked around before tugging on Ryu's pants as the warrior looked in front of him and saw his two adversaries for the battle. Wario was grinning evilly as he cracked his knuckles while Mewtwo floated in place, surrounding himself in a purple aura to scare his challengers. Ryu the took a readied stance as Pikachu stood on all fours while letting some sparks fly.
"You ready for this?", Ryu asked.
"Pikachu!", Pikachu replied bravely.
"You take on Mewtwo since you're more familiar with his attack pattern. I'll deal with Wario.", Ryu said as he and Pikachu took their stance.
"Ready...GO!", Master Hand yelled over the intercom as the battle commenced. Pikachu dashed towards the psychic Pokemon, dodging all of the Shadow Balls that Mewtwo threw at him to keep his distance. Pikachu then slid underneath another attack before jumping into the air and attempted to slice Mewtwo with his Iron Tail. But right as Pikachu was a foot away from Mewtwo, the psychic raised his shield up, blocking the attack.
"You're going to have to do better if you want to hit me.", Mewtwo said as he telekinetically pushed the mouse back before zooming off to swipe him. Pikachu then landed on his two hind legs before jumping over Mewtwo, who missed his swipe, before dishing out an electric wave which Mewtwo barely blocked as the attack sent him digging his feet in the ground a couple of feet before the attack wore off. Mewtwo then lowered his shield before glaring at Pikachu.
"It seems that there's more to you than meets the eye.", he confessed.
"Pikachu!", Pikachu shouted back.
"Hmph! Your arrogance will be your downfall!", Mewtwo snapped as he then charged back at the electric Pokemon. While he dealt with him, on the other side of the battlefield, Wario was having difficulty hitting Ryu. He had no idea how Ryu was able to predict his attacks, confirming that Ryu was indeed the best fighter in the tournament...and that Wario was a complete idiot. While it may have been a mystery for him, it wasn't for everyone else with common sense. It was because Wario kept using the same shoulder charge again and again. Every time Wario would run to attack, Ryu would simply jump out of the way, making Wario use all of his energy up rather quickly. Wario then hunched over as he began to pant like a dog as Ryu then lifted his hand and made a 'come on!' motion with his hand.
"Is that all, bring it on!", Ryu said. Wario then looked up before gritting his teeth together as he turned red and stomped his foot in aggravation.
"NO! YOU-A BRING IT ON TO-A ME!", Wario challenged as he pointed towards himself. Ryu then looked on in shock, but regained his confidence as he charged forward before leaving into the air.
"YOU'RE ON!", he cried. Wario then smiled as Ryu drew closer to him, Wario had set him up to attack so he himself can counter-attack and gain the upper hand. But unfortunately for the fat man, Ryu was no idiot, especially when it came to the way of fighting. As Ryu looked at Wario, who anticipated a kick, Ryu started to make the motion before suddenly changing to a knee attack. The sudden shift in attack caught Wario off guard as his pupils shrunk in disbelief.
"WHAT!?", he yelled as Ryu's knee slammed into his big, pink nose.
"AH! MY NOSE!", Wario cried as he grabbed his nose. Ryu then took the opportunity to kneel down and punch Wario in the gut three times before standing up and roundhouse punching him in the face, uppercutting him underneath the chin, and a fist straight into his face which sent him back a few feet. Wario then grabbed the ground as he knelt his head down like a bull before charging at Ryu at blinding speed.
"YOU'LL-A PAY FOR THAT!", Wario yelled as Ryu barely dodged in time as he rolled away. As Ryu stood on his feet, Wario ran towards him again before jumping in the air and extending his foot in front of him in attempt to kick Ryu with a flying side-kick. Ryu then ducked in time, but Wario landed behind him and took the opportunity to punch Ryu in the face before pummeling him in the stomach. Ryu then grunted in pain as Wario laughed at the warrior's pain.
"NOW HERE'S WHERE-A THE FUN BEGINS!", Wario said as he threw out his hands and began rapidly punching Ryu everywhere as Ryu did his best to block and redirect every attack, only to get hit every so often as Wario continued his assault. Ryu was then hit by another punch as he dug his foot into the ground meanwhile Wario charged again with another shoulder attack. Ryu then steadied himself as he prepared for a surprise attack.
"TAKE-A THIS!", Wario yelled as he successfully collided with Ryu, but the warrior had a trick underneath his sleeve.
"FOCUS ATTACK!", Ryu said as he then punched Wario in the gut with a stun attack. Wario couldn't help but feel immobilized throughout his entire body as Ryu then threw out his own attacks. Ryu punched Wario in the face before following up with a front-snap kick, then kicking him in the face with an inside-crescent kick before pummeling him with punches to his ribs, followed with a roundhouse kick to the body as he finished by grabbing Wario and kneeing him a few times in the stomach before rolling back and kicking him away. Thankfully, this led to a successful double play as Wario was sent straight back into Mewtwo, who payed no attention to the other battle as Wario accidentally knocked him to the ground. Pikachu then ran up as Ryu came charging, ready to get this over with.
"SWITCH!", Ryu said as Pikachu leapt forward and began attacking Wario, who was sent back by the electrical attack as Mewtwo stood up.
"What?", Mewtwo asked before Ryu jumped and kicked the psychic in the stomach. Mewtwo then reeled in pain as Ryu charged up a Hadouken, which exploded in Mewtwo's face as Ryu then kicked him underneath the chin with a front-stretch kick. Mewtwo then stood up before firing a Shadow Ball as Ryu dodged before ducking as Mewtwo threw a punch and side-stepped to dodge a swipe. Mewtwo then tried to kick Ryu, but Ryu caught his foot before kicking the other foot out from beneath Mewtwo. Mewtwo then rolled back, but did not escape far enough as Ryu kicked him in the face, kneed him in the stomach and punched him in the nose. He then grabbed Mewtwo by the shoulders and rolled back and kicked Mewtwo over him as the psychic Pokemon went flying through the air before landing face-first onto the ground. Mewtwo then lifted his head up, for he was too sore to get up immediately, and saw Wario struggling against Pikachu.
"Wario...ergh...come help me!", Mewtwo commanded as Wario looked back at the psychic.
"CAN'T-A YOU SEE THAT I'M-A BUSY!?", Wario barked as he averted his eyes back to Pikachu, who leapt towards him, but was caught as Wario grabbed him by the head and lifted him up and tightened his squeeze which made Pikachu cry out in pain.
"Not so fun now, is-a it!?", Wario laughed. However, Pikachu then grabbed Wario's arms before swinging back.
"Pika...CHU!", Pikachu yelled as he swung forward and kicked Wario in the face. The force was very surprising as well as Wario let go of Pikachu as he stumbled back and landed on his back right in front of Mewtwo. The two of them then got onto their knees as they saw their opponents slowly approaching before Mewtwo leaned closer to Wario.
"Wario, use that extra garlic now.", he advised as Wario secretly dug into his pocket and pulled out a clove of garlic that he had snuck in before the battle. But unfortunately for him, it wasn't a big secret as he hoped it was as Master Hand and the three spies then caught him on one of the cameras.
"THERE! HE'S-A PULLING IT OUT OF HIS POCKET!", Luigi shouted as he pointed at the screen.
"Good work Luigi! Now we've got these cheaters!", Master Hand said as the camera showed Wario sneak the clove into his mouth. Ryu and Pikachu then zoomed forward as the two villains then stood up. Mewtwo threw a punch, which Ryu ducked under before kicking Mewtwo in the face as Pikachu jumped and grabbed onto Wario's arm before biting it and zapping him at the same time. Mewtwo then took a couple of steps to the left as Ryu took the same to the right. Mewtwo then swiped as Ryu dodged and smiled at the psychic.
"You should be more careful where you step.", he said as Mewtwo then realized he stood closest to the blastzone. Before he could react, Ryu lifted his foot up and performed a Joudan Sokutogeri against Mewtwo's chest as Mewtwo was sent flying from the battlefield.
"Mewtwo defeated!", Master Hand announced as Ryu turned his attention to Wario before punching him and roundhouse kicking him in the face. Wario then grabbed Pikachu off his hand and threw him away before punching Ryu in the stomach as Ryu knelt down in pain as Wario prepared his ultimate attack.
"Prepare to lose!", Wario exclaimed as he was about to release his atomic fart.
"RYU! USE FOCUS ATTACK!", Master Hand yelled over the intercom, catching both Ryu and Wario by surprise.
"WHAT!?", Wario yelled, but Ryu took action. As Wario released his Waft, Ryu used his Focus Attack to survive the knock back as Wario went up into the air before falling back down for a literal stunning punch.
"NO!", Wario yelled as Ryu punched him the the face, stunning him in time to do one last attack.
"SHORYUKEN!", Ryu yelled as he uppercutted Wario into the air as the fat man went flying into the sky before he fell into a star k.o.
"AAAHHHHHH!", Wario yelled before he became a white dot in the sky.
"The winners are...RYU AND PIKACHU!", Master Hand yelled over the intercom as the Toads in the stands cheered on the duo as Ryu and Pikachu were then teleported back to the mansion, where they saw an angry Wario and Mewtwo waiting for them there.
"NO FAIR! YOU CHEATED!", Wario yelled as he pointed an accusing finger at Ryu. Ryu was about to defend himself when Master Hand floated into the room and pointed at Wario.
"On the contrary, you are the one who cheated!", Master Hand yelled as Wario's and Mewtwo's eyes widened and pupils shrunk in fear before Wario growled at Master Hand.
"BALONY! YOU HAVE-A NO PROOF!", Wario shouted.
"YOU'RE WRONG WARIO! WE'RE THE PROOF HAS!", Captain Falcon then boomed as he, Luigi, and Falco then stepped into the room.
"WE-A SAW YOU EAT THAT GARLIC CLOVE RIGHT BEFORE YOUR-A WAFT AND WE HAVE-A VIDEO TAPE TO PROVE IT!", Luigi said as Wario and Mewtwo turned pale for a second before Wario threw his hands into the air.
"NO! CURSE-A THAT TAPE! I WILL-A...",
"Clean your room and the mansion and run chores for me, yes you will.", Master Hand then interrupted as Wario's jaw hit the floor in response.
"WHAT!?", he yelled.
"You heard me. Oh! And the other villains get to help to, unless you don't want that paycheck...ever.", Master Hand said as the other villain smashers then yelled in disgust.
"WHAT!? THANKS A LOT WARIO!", Bowser growled.
"YOU RUINED EVERYTHING WE SAID THIS MORNING WITH AN ACTUAL REASON WE HAVE TO DO CHORES NOW! I'M GOING TO KILL YOU WARIO!", Wolf yelled.
"CURSE YOU WARIO!", Ganondorf yelled. Suddenly, he felt something vibrating in his pant's pocket. He then pulled out his cellphone and saw that it was Giygas calling. Ganondorf then looked over to see if everyone wasn't paying attention, thankfully they were either protesting or laughing about the situation. Ganondorf then noticed that Master Hand wasn't looking and quickly ducked into the hallway before answering.
"I'm at a bad time, what is it!?", he whispered into the phone.
"I need to see you tonight.", Giygas replied.
"I beg your pardon?", Ganondorf replied.
"Sneak out tonight, it's very important and could ruin our plan.", Giygas said as Ganondorf looked back into the room before finding his chance to sneak back in undetected.
"Understood, I'll see you later.", Ganondorf said as he hung up the phone and sneaked back into the room in order to draw away suspicion. He then groaned as Master Hand laughed heartily at the villains' expense.
"I'll kill Wario.", Ganondorf said to himself as he grunted in embarrassment.
Night had fallen, and everyone had fallen asleep, both in the mansion and in the city. But two people were still awake. One of them waited in a secret workshop as he waited for the other one. Suddenly, the door to the place was then heard opening as footsteps came up into the room as a cloaked figure then removed his disguise and threw it on the table in disgust.
"That blasted Wario is making it worse for us villains! Urgh! He's become nearly as bad as King Dedede!", Ganondorf vented in frustration.
"That's unfortunate to hear.", Giygas said in response.
"Anyways, what did you want to show me?", Ganondorf asked. Giygas then leaned back in his seat before pressing a button on his computer as the giant TV screen then showed the mansion from one of the spy ladybug's view.
"This.", Giygas said as he pressed the play-button.
"Villains.", Master Hand said on the recording. Giygas then sped the recording up a bit as Ganondorf's eyes widened in shock.
"I plan to get rid of the villains.", Master Hand said as Giygas then sped up the recording again, showing Ganondorf what the robot could do and how it worked before turning off the recording. Ganondorf stood still for a moment, the only thing moving was his fist, which tightened up into a fist. A couple of seconds passed of pure silence before Ganondorf roared out of anger.
"WHY THAT SNEAKY HAND! WE HAD PLANS TO TAKE CAFE OF HIM AND HE PLANS TO GET RID OF US! ARRGH!", Ganondorf yelled as he threw a table over before kicking it away in anger.
"Yes, but do you know what this means?", Giygas asked as Ganondorf stood up and faced towards him.
"The others.", he replied as Giygas nodded his head.
"They need to know our plan now.", Giygas advised as Ganondorf looked at the door before putting on a straight face.
"Tomorrow. I'll bring them by and reveal everything to them.", Ganondorf said as he grabbed his cloak and began putting it back on.
"Perhaps they can help this plan go along much better.", Giygas said as Ganondorf began walking away.
"Oh, I have no doubt that they can help us accomplish everything soon enough. What I'm worried about is how much time do we have left before the hand makes his move.", Ganondorf stated before he went down the stairs and outside again as Giygas went back to work on their secret project.

Whoa whoa whoa! I'm just joking! Anyways, I'm sorry I wasn't able to upload for a while, but Yellowstone was very protective of their Wi-Fi, and I decided to wait until I was out to publish a new chapter. Even then, I still didn't write because I was checking out the park. But now I'm back! And three more fighters have been announced! Well, congratulations Banjo and Kazooie fans, your dreams have been answered! Also excited for Terry Bogard to join as well! But Hero? Oh, I'm mad! I'm really mad! (Turns red).
